Hi all, starting reloading with the above done some reading and research and wanting an all round bullet for fox, roe, and the odd red deer.
Struggling to find start and max loads for the above combination, can anyone help me out and/or point me to somewhere that can?
Viht reloading tables only has Barnes TSX in 85gn min 40.9 and max 46grns.
Cheers guys
 
With a standard primer , 42 grains or 42.5. see how it groups and watch your pressure you can go a bit more.

Personal hand load with that bullet is 47.3 gr N160

They also offer a 90gr bullet that as far as I can tell, is simply the 85 gr with a plastic tip.
